[jira] Commented: (MCHANGES-190) HTML in changes.xml stopped working

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCHANGES-190?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=212946#action_212946 ] 

Christian Schulte commented on MCHANGES-190:
--------------------------------------------

When generalizing the xsd schema, support for action details (in addition to short descriptions) could be added so that current behaviour could be retained. Those details could be ignored by default when generating announcement mails. Seems the intended use of the changes.xml file is to specify a *summary* of changes rather than specifying a detailed changes report.

> ...and process the content of changes.xml according to where the output goes.

I would still say that no processing of the content from the changes.xml file should be performed at all. What if someone decides to send out HTML announcement mails ? Please note that I am currently only using the changes-report goal during site generation so I am very unfamiliar with the announcement mail feature.

> The fix for MCHANGES-189 does not seem to be correct. A changes.xml file containing HTML-Tags got rendered correctly using version 2.2. Starting with version 2.3, HTML-Tags will be encoded using HTML entities for the '<' and '>' characters leading to the actual tags getting shown in the report. See the attached example changes.xml file containing HTML no longer working with version 2.3.
